Conclusion
• Obesity is effectively treated by lowering the set point
• For Bariatric Surgery to continue to grow likely needs to focus on metabolic syndrome of which weight is valued no more than other co-morbidities
• We need to change the expectation that surgery will finally fix the obesity problem. Aligning patients and primary care doctors to the chronic nature of the disease.
